Gnocchi

So, I've realized it's been a while, and my LOVELY Wifek suggested I get back to it.. so what a better way to start up again, by showing something that she introduced to me herself!
Gnocchi

But Craig, you've never had Gnocchi?  Why.. no... I haven't actually.  We went to a local restaurant and she had mentioned that I need to try it..

|I'm glad I did!

So here it is, my version of the Gnocchi... Voila!



Ingredients..


1 Egg
2 Lbs of Potatoes
3 Cups of Flour


Salt and Pepper to taste.



Directions:

1 Peel and cut potatoes, and boil.
2.  Mash the potatoes and let cool 10-15 min until comfortable to touch.
3. Add Egg and Flour and Mix.

Now the consistancy could very well depends on how dry or wet your potatoes are when you mash them.  If everything is mixed and your pasta is still quite sticky to touch, and not as a Bread Dough consistancy, add more flour until thick and no more sticky to touch.

4.  Roll into long rolls about 1/4 to a half in in thickness (This will really depend on how thick you like your pasta)
5, After having rolled out, now take a pastry cutter (Or knife) and start  cutting your rolls 1/4 inch long.
6.  Boil until cooked (When they float is a good indicator)

And you're done!

Enjoy them with a normal pasta sauce, or try a smoked bacon Alfredo..
